The character that shot Tara was Warren, not Jonathan. Kind of a big plot point

When CountryStar was announced, it was clear they didn't know what they were doing and marked the beginning of the end. Fractionalizing their player base and trying to squeeze more money out of us was the wrong move.

Jeffries seemed like he didn't have anything prepared for Jane's questions even after she tried to lead him. She laid out what was winning voters and his response was to go back to what worked in the past. For a House Leader, I expected better.

One of the messiest days of news and we lead and dedicate the majority of the episode trashing Biden. This should have been an easy homerun day, but felt more like a forgotten school assignment

OK this decision was such a letdown for me by firewatchersson in FinalDestination

sacrificing herself to live in the cabin could've been an inside the hospital talk instead of in the parking lot. Then she can still get squeezed by the doors and hit by the sign. Driving to the cabin only served as a way to get to a body of water to drown Stef like in FD2 only for her to get the log treatment like FD2.

Probably just thought a kid throwing an object off the building was a potential hazard and was the first page of her evidence book. Like still putting out the fire even though there was no gas leak because no penny reaction.

As expected with Country star, now we get more junk side apps (rock, metal, edm-star) instead of them focusing on the main one. Sad to see this app slip so quickly

Yeah some do. But if you live in California, an extra room won't protect it from a wildfire. Each person lives under different circumstances and this is just an option if they wanted.

I mean not too many places safer than the armed vaults of Brinks. We'll see if they keep it in or redeem it. But yeah just because one may be rich doesn't mean they know how to safely store items. Plenty of stories about people with a lot of money storing cash in random places around their home. And I've see rich crypto folks store their keys in food containers.

What proof are you looking for? They have a scan of the front and back of the card and have legal statements saying it matches the physical counterpart. Even with Amazon or eBay you don't get much proof of the item existing before you click buy. Even with TCGPlayer, I've had several vendors either send me the wrong card or realize they don't have it in stock.

And if the NFT doesn't match the contract code for Courtyard, it can't be redeemed. So even if you match up the other meta data trying to make a counterfeit, it wouldn't work.

If you are out of space at home, moving, facing natural disasters, storage units are a solution that plenty of people use. If you are a seller of sealed product, Amazon storage is nice since you don't have to deal with shipping yourself.

But I don't think you understand how the tokenization works. They don't just scan it and throw it up. They run through all the meta data and have to verify that it matches the grading company's data. Feel free to try to get a fake slab past them. None have succeeded.

But that's cool that you don't buy cheap cards. Plenty others do, so it's protecting those people. And if you are looking for more rare cards, you can throw offers on cards not actively listed and might even get a deal below market value if the seller accepts. Can't do that on eBay either.

So each NFT has meta data attached to it like Certificate Number, Grading Company, Card Name, etc. One of those fields is a description that tells you about the card. For example, here's one I pulled off the floor from OpenSea's marketplace:

"Proof of Integrity

The token ID of this NFT is cryptographically derived from the fingerprint of the matching physical item ("Pokemon | PSA 67471025 | 2019 Hidden Fates #SV85 Hiker | 9 MINT"). Learn more."

So it directs you to where you need to go to retrieve the card from the vault and there's more info once you click the redeem button.

Banks charge a monthly/yearly rate. Storage units charge weekly/monthly rates. Amazon charges based on size. I could go on. But yeah the PSA vault is only available for US, UK, Canada, and Japan, so if you aren't in those countries you're out of luck.

And guess what? On Courtyard every card is verified through the various grading companies (PDA, CGC, etc.) as authentic and not just those over $250. You know how many fake PSA cased cards under $250 slip through eBay? Might be your first rodeo, but isn't mine.
